A New York Times Bestselling Author.On the windswept, fossil-strewn beaches of the English coast, Mary Anning learns that she has "the eye" - she finds what no one else can see. When Mary uncovers an unusual fossilized skeleton, she sets the religious fathers on edge, the townspeople to vicious gossip, and the scientific world alight. But, as a woman, Mary is barred from the academic community. Luckily, she finds a champion in prickly Elizabeth Philpot, a recent exile from London.
